The default timeout for selftests tests is 45 seconds. Although we already have 13 settings for tests of about 96 sefltests which use a timeout greater than this, we want to try to avoid encouraging more tests to forcing a higher test timeout as selftests strives to run all tests quickly. Selftests also uses the timeout as a non-fatal error. Only tests runners which have control over a system would know if to treat a timeout as fatal or not. To help with all this: o Enhance documentation to avoid future increases of insane timeouts o Add the option to allow overriding the default timeout with test runners with a command line option Suggested-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Muhammad Usama Anjum <usama.anjum@collabora.com> Tested-by:Muhammad Usama Anjum <usama.anjum@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org> |
